<div align="center">BB Gun

Well I did some upgrades that made it 100% better.

<img src="http://www.spudfiles.com/official_pics/IM000744.jpg">

The can spent 5 seconds in the "shredder", this was the biggest piece I could find. Anyways I put an angled grip on and I recessed the blowgun and painting the plumbing as you can see. This makes the gun look a lot better and is slightly more comfortable. I also fixed a few minor things such as the flashlight, now it is held in by a set screw instead of friction. The light is awesome, inside the barrel shroud is a laser but the mag lite is my favorite!

Inside I added "funnels" to the vortex, this lets me use every single bb. Oh, I also got a 50ft recoil hose. That thing is very nice, as it doesn't drag and weigh the gun down like normal air hoses. The only downside to this gun is the cost of bb's and the fact that when you recycle them it jams sometimes because of misshappen bb's. This gun is awesome, it looks cool and is destructive. Any comments are appreciated.

Upgraded strafer block, ghetto laser sight and muzzle break.

why cant you buy bb's?, if you cant get bb's just get some shotgun shot that'll fit the barrel you get, many people have built these, some from other countries, django is from austrailia i believe, and he does good for himself as far as pipe goes, so yeh, you'll be able to make that

Very nice! Very clean. If i were you i woulda went with a cloud. Vortex blocks where out and are not very consistant. The BB's where grooves into the block and that causes the bb's to not go into the barrel properly. When this happens there are skips in the firing. The bb's start flying everywhere inside the vortex eating away at the block and then you have to take it apart and make a new one. A cloud bbmg is the best. There is a constant firing and no parts are wore down by the bb's. These are simpler to make. Just a chamber with a barrel and an air source.

Hey Aaron are there any automotive shops in your area? Go there and ask for a brake lines. Tell them the diameter you want and they will most likely get it for you.

Hey thanks, spudshot, i've been doing some research and i'm going to make a cloud out of a 2" elbow so it has the curve like a votex and the simplicity of a cloud! its probably going to look like poo, but it will probably work well... if i do it right.

i found some brass pipe in a hobby shop that is even better than brake line and ive made a smaller "experimental" bb machine gun for air soft pellets the vortex block is so dodgy there is a chunk missing where the pellets go in the barrel which proves that u dont have to get the vortex block perfect for the gun to work

yeah im thinking about making a cloud BBMG
should cost around $15-$20aud
i just need to find a cheep amo source
maybe BB size shotgun shots, they cost around $50aud for about 4ltrs of 'em
ah that sounds cheep enough!

But the only problem is the cops busted me with my mini slug shooter(about 5inches long) cos my dumbass neighbors called them
and they said next time im goin 2 court :( :o
awell ill just go around to my dadshe's got good neighbors :lol:

Please take some time to write your post because about half of that I didnt know what you were talking about. How about you "spare" yourself some time and look for plans? Plans are found on this site here http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=148 I know it might of been hard to find plans but since you didnt take the time to type your post that makes me mad, espically if your asking for something PLEASE take the time to write your post. Its just not you, it seems like everybody is lazy these days (FAT PEOPLE). So the morale of this post is take time when posting.
